-Status: Bogus
+Status: Open
Bug Type: Zend Engine 2 problem
Operating System: OS X 10.2
PHP Version: 5.0.0b2-dev
New Comment:
OK, tell me this is bogus:
-------------------------------
<?php
function trap1()
{
$a = 10;
$b = array('x'=>$a);
$x =& $b['x'];
$x = 5;
var_dump(get_defined_vars());
}
trap1();
function trap2()
{
$a = 10;
$b = array('x'=>$a);
extract($b, EXTR_REFS);
$x = 5;
var_dump(get_defined_vars());
}
trap2();
?>
In first function, $a is unchanged. In second, it is altered. They
should behave the same way. It is only
extract() making the difference.

Description:
------------
If you create an array by assigning its elements the value of a scalar
variable (or, in PHP5, by using array_combine() with an array of keys
and an array built with array_fill() or array_pad()), then
extract(array, EXTR_REFS) will make that scalar into a reference, as
well as making all the array elements references to the same...
location? I don't know, they all end up pointing to the same thing, so
that changing any one of them changes all of them.
This tests the same on the current PHP4 release and the latest CVS PHP5
code.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
function trap()
{
$tick = 0;
$x = array('x1'=>$tick, 'x2'=>$tick, 'x3'=>0,
'x4'=>0);
$y = array('y1'=>$tick, 'y2'=>$tick, 'y3'=>0,
'y4'=>0);
var_dump(get_defined_vars());
foreach ($x as $k => $v)
$$k =& $x[$k];
extract($y, EXTR_REFS);
var_dump(get_defined_vars());
$x1 = 1;
$y1 = 2;
$y3 = 4;
var_dump(get_defined_vars());
$tick = 5;
var_dump(get_defined_vars());
}
trap();
?>
Expected result:
----------------
Changing $y1 should only change it and y['y1'].
Changing $tick should only change $tick.
Actual result:
--------------
Changing $y1 or $tick changes the other as well.
